Festal vestments

The Saint Bede Studio is pleased to present this set of recently-completed Festal vestments.

The Saint Bede Studio : vestments made by Catholics for Catholics. 

This set of vestments is in the style we call Saint Philip Neri.  It is a modern interpretation of the chasubles illustrated in various depictions of Saint Philip and other bishops and saints of the 16th century.  Although ornamented in the Roman manner, this is an earlier and more traditional form of "the Roman chasuble" being both wider and longer.  As made by the Saint Bede Studio, this style of vestment is very comfortable to wear.

This particular set was made from a beautiful silk damask in a shade of ivory, it was lined in a a deep rose shade of taffeta and ornamented in the Roman manner : a silk damask outlined with a golden galloon.

Vestments for the Sacred Heart of Jesus

On this Feast of the Sacred Heart, we are pleased to present this set of vestments in colours of the Feast.  

The vestments of the Saint Bede Studio are beautiful in design, sound in construction and distinctive in appearance.

Tasteful contemporary vestments are made by certain studios in Italy, France and Germany, but we also make them here in Australia at the Saint Bede Studio.  This set has a simple dignity and is made from high quality fabrics.

The chasuble (which is unlined) and stole are made from a sturdy cream-coloured moiré taffeta.  A column ornaments the back and front of the chasuble, formed from one of the Studio's unique braids called Saint Edmund, and based on the designs of AWN Pugin.  It features the monogram IHS.

These vestments are exceedingly comfortable to wear and not in the least flimsy.

On the Feast of the Sacred Heart

                                                  

A beautiful hymn, written in Australia in the late 1950s by Professor James McAuley, to music by Richard Connolly.  It became part of the Living Parish Hymnbook, first published in 1961.  A recording of this lovely hymn may be heard at this YouTube post. 

Antiphon :   

Jesus, in your heart we find
Love of the Father and mankind;
These two loves to us impart
Divine love in a human heart.

    V.  May we stand within the fire

 Of your Sacred Heart, and raise

 To our God in joyful choir

 All creation's song of praise.  

    V.  In our hearts from roots of pride

Deadly growths of evil flower;

But from Jesus' wounded side

Streams the sacramental power. 

  

    V. To the depths within your heart

Draw us with divine desire,

Hide us, heal us, and impart

Your own love's transforming fire.
